Fixed in focal:

x2goclient (4.1.2.1-4) unstable; urgency=medium

  * debian/patches:
    + Add libssh-regression-fix-CVE-2019-14889.patch. In src/sshprocess.cpp:
      strip ~/, ~user{,/}, ${HOME}{,/} and $HOME{,/} from destination paths
      in scp mode. Fixes: #1428. This was already necessary for pascp (PuTTY-
      based Windows solution for Kerberos support), but newer libssh versions
      with the CVE-2019-14889 also interpret paths as literal strings.
      (Closes: #947129).
